Self-Driving Taxis & Trucks — KQED Forum 10am PT

I’ll be on KQED Forum today at 10am discussing the latest self-driving technology, how it’s being legislated, and what will drive its future.

In San Francisco, self-driving taxis with no human operator are already driving around city streets. Google-owned Waymo expanded to L.A. last month, and General Motors’s Cruise has applied to widen its testing to cities across California. What will the impact of this deployment be on drivers, the environment and public safety?

Joining me on the show will be:

  • Christopher Beale, studio engineer, producer and reporter, KQED – reported for Bay Curious a piece, “You’re Not Imagining It: There Are More Driverless Cars in SF Now”
  • Trish Blinstrub, political director, Teamsters Joint Council 7

Tune in on KQED Radio or stream live at 10am!
